Legal Documentation Services
WebLex prepares online legal documents for individuals, businesses, and startups.
Simply share your requirements and relevant information with us. Our experienced legal professionals review the details and prepare your document, delivering the final draft in both PDF and MS Word formats.
Please note: Certain documents must be executed on stamp paper, with stamp duty payable as per applicable state laws (rates vary by state). WebLex provides only the text/content of the document — we do not pay stamp duty on your behalf, nor is the stamp duty amount mentioned within the document text. Arranging the appropriate stamp paper and paying the requisite stamp duty is the sole responsibility of the customer.
Simple drafts are typically ready in 1–2 working days. Complex commercial or property documents take 3–5 working days.
What Legal Documentation Services Cover
Online legal documentation services go beyond filling in a template. When you share a requirement, the process involves:
- Understanding the transaction or situation behind the document
- Identifying which documents are actually needed — sometimes it is more than one
- Drafting with clauses that protect your specific interests, not generic placeholder text
- Checking compliance with the Indian Contract Act 1872, Registration Act 1908, IT Act 2000, or whichever law applies to your document
- Reviewing the final draft for missing terms, unenforceable clauses, and registration requirements
The result is an advocate reviewed legal document that holds up when it matters — in front of a bank, a government office, or a court.
Good to know: A document becomes legally valid when it is properly stamped, signed, and registered where required — not merely by being drafted.
Documents We Draft
Business Contracts and Commercial Agreements
Every business deal needs written terms. A verbal understanding has no legal weight when money is stuck or a partner walks away.
We draft commercial agreements that cover payment structure, delivery obligations, breach consequences, IP ownership, confidentiality, dispute resolution, and jurisdiction — tailored to your specific deal.

Personal Documents and Affidavits
Certain life events need legal paperwork — name changes, marriage registration, inheritance claims, or simple sworn declarations.
Affidavits deserve special mention because they come up constantly. An affidavit is a sworn statement on stamp paper, used for:
- Address or identity declaration
- Income or employment declaration
- Gap period explanation for education or employment
- Name or date of birth correction
- Court submissions and compliance filings
- Self-declaration for government applications

Startup and Fundraising Documents
Startups move fast, and legal paperwork usually falls behind. The cost of that delay shows up during fundraising due diligence, co-founder disputes, or IP ownership confusion.
|
Stage |
What You Need |
|---|---|
|
Co-founder stage |
Founders Agreement, NDA |
|
First hires |
Employment Contracts, ESOP Policy if offering equity |
|
Revenue stage |
Client Contracts, Vendor Agreements, Privacy Policy |
|
Fundraising |
Term Sheet, Shareholders Agreement, Share Subscription Agreement |
The founders agreement should clearly cover equity split, vesting schedule (standard is 4 years with 1 year cliff), roles, decision-making, IP assignment to the company, and exit terms. Without it, a co-founder who leaves after three months can claim the same equity as one who stays five years.
No serious investor writes a cheque without a shareholders agreement that defines board composition, anti-dilution protection, liquidation preference, and exit rights.

Stamp Duty, Registration and E-Sign
This is where most people have real questions. Here is what you need to know:
Stamp duty is a state government fee, and the amount payable depends on your state, the type of document, and the value of the transaction, with rates varying across states. As the applicable rate and amount depend on your specific facts and location, we recommend verifying the exact duty through the relevant state authority or a local expert rather than relying on generic online calculators, which often fail to account for state-specific variations.
Registration is compulsory for certain documents under the Registration Act, 1908:
-
Sale deeds
-
Gift deeds
-
Lease deeds and rent agreements exceeding 11 months
-
Partition deeds
-
Property-related Power of Attorney (in most states)
An unregistered document that legally requires registration is not admissible as evidence in court. This is not a technicality — it can cost you the entire case.
E-stamping — is available in most major states through SHCIL (Stock Holding Corporation of India). E-stamp certificates carry a unique ID that can be verified online, which eliminates the risk of fake stamp paper.
E-signatures — Aadhaar-based e-sign is legally valid under the IT Act, 2000 for most agreements. However, some documents (like sale deeds and certain PoAs) still require wet-ink signatures and physical registration. We tell you which method applies to your document
Please Note: WebLex provides only the text and content of the document — we do not pay stamp duty on your behalf, and the stamp duty amount is not mentioned within the document text itself. Arranging the appropriate stamp paper and paying the requisite stamp duty remains the sole responsibility of the customer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is an online legal document valid in India?
Yes, if it is properly stamped, signed (wet ink, Aadhaar e-sign, or valid DSC where the law allows), and registered when the Registration Act or state law requires registration. The medium — email or courier — does not decide validity. Execution does.
What is the difference between legal drafting and legal documentation on WebLex?
Legal drafting on WebLex means court petition drafting — writs, SLPs, bail applications, appeals. Legal documentation means transactional papers — agreements, deeds, notices, policies, wills and affidavits.
Who drafts the document?
Drafts are prepared for your facts and reviewed by expert legal professionals. WebLex is a para-legal support platform. We do not appear in court as your counsel.
How long does it take?
Most standard documents: 1–2 working days after we have complete inputs. Complex commercial, property or fundraising papers: 3–5 working days. Mention any deadline at the start.
Do I need stamp paper and registration?
Many agreements need stamp duty. Leases over 11 months, sale deeds, gift deeds, partition deeds and most property PoAs need registration.
Can you only vet a draft I already have?
Yes. Send the existing draft. We flag missing clauses, unenforceable terms and stamp or registration issues, then return a marked-up version.
Do you work PAN India and for NRIs?
Yes. Drafting is remote. Stamp duty follows the state of execution or the property location. NRIs can use a specific or general PoA where needed.
What do you need from me to start?
Names and addresses of parties, the commercial or personal terms already agreed, any previous draft, property details if relevant, and the state where the document will be signed or registered.
How much does legal documentation cost?
Fees depend on document type, complexity, number of parties and urgency. Share the requirement for a fixed quote before work starts. Stamp duty and registration charges are government fees, separate from drafting fees.
